A terrain mask is a little tough to explain. Basically, it's a picture that determines which texture goes where. So I can have a snowy texture go here, a grass texture go there, and so on.

I've hardly touched the sky maker yet, since I'm busy with heightmap and mask making, but I could take a look at it.
Edit: Have you successfully loaded the sky file?

Have you managed to save your sky and/or weather file?

If you don't get an error while loading it in the map maker, I think that means it works. However, I don't think skys play their cycle in the map maker.

I love you xD Both the map and mask tutorials have been helpful to me trying to learn how to make my own maps. You've made my day!
